Hearing Vespa's going from 155 to 174cc makes me grin. That bump in displacement pays off directly in dashing off from traffic lights around town and having margin when you head a bit further out to the suburbs. Both the Primavera and Sprint have real riding chops, not just cute looks. Easy, convenient, and a bit faster — a natural evolution for Vespa, and very welcome.

When you say Vespa's rival, it's a brand in a different position than something like Honda's Gyro.

With the displacement bump, the price is probably going up a bit too—curious about the details.

Going from 155 to 174 sounds like it'll deliver more low-speed torque headroom than the number alone suggests.

The i-Get engine was originally Piaggio's flagship engine, so the technology should be well matured.

It's a nice thing that Vespa's staple model keeps evolving like this.

Bumping displacement from 155 to 174cc is a small, incremental evolution that stays within the same license category.

If the bigger displacement gives more headroom on hills and highway merging, that's welcome from a practical standpoint.
